"Newspaper—"

It was gray and dawn had just arrived, and a young adjutant rode his horse and galloped on, kneeling on one knee in front of the Qilin King's tent.

What the?

The deputy general, Bai Chengwu, looked at the Qilin King in surprise, his face full of disbelief.

"That day the Moon County Lord just arrived last night, and he actually retreated like this?"

With Ling Yuexi's personality, he will not easily stop the army, unless he ...... She already has a winning position.

"Hurry up!"

"Lord Wang, will there be fraud!"

There is fraud!

The Qilin King snorted lightly, Ling Yuexi set up a battle and waited for him, how could he let him down.

Fifty thousand light cavalry swept out of the city under the leadership of the Qilin King, and the dust raised by the soldiers of the Celestial Empire could already be seen in the distance.

Ling Yuexi had already let go of the best ambush time, was she really just retreating?

The Kirin King took the reins, hesitated slightly, and looked around.

As soon as he left the city, he sent his elite infantry to outflank them, and if there was an ambush, he could destroy them.

"Lord Wang, look at ......"

Following the soldier's fingers, the Kirin King saw a puff of smoke rising from the city, and the wind-swept fire rose like a red devil.

He fell for the trick of diverting the tiger from the mountain.

The face under the mask of the Qilin King was dark and terrifying.

Return!

Bang!

As soon as he turned around, a cluster of brilliant sparks suddenly rose from the troops behind him.

Then a dull sound was heard.

A dense rain of arrows rained down on the soldiers from the dead grass on both sides of the road.

The men dressed themselves in wild grass, and their faces were painted with strange colored stripes that made it impossible to see their real faces.

Cavalrymen on horseback could easily become live targets, and countless casualties were inflicted in an instant.

Whoosh –

Three white feather arrows burst through the air, and the Qilin King jumped up from his horse, and in an instant, three more white feather arrows followed, hitting his mount.

It turns out that her purpose in the first place was her own mount.

The Qilin King landed on a steed, and a white figure stood on the halfway slope in front of him.

She was wearing a lightly dancing armor with a white veil covering her face.

The voice was clear and melodious: "The lord of this county thinks that the Qilin King will always be a turtle with a shrunken head!" ”

"Ling Yuexi!"

He had imagined that their meeting would indeed be on the battlefield, but it was not so dull. He suddenly wanted to lift the veil and look at the face that made him love and hate.

"The prince doesn't have to be murderous to the lord of this county, if I am the prince, I must hurry back to the city at this time, otherwise if General Bai Chengwu comes out of the city to rescue, won't he be wiped out by my dark cloud horse!"

Ling Yuexi giggled and let out a scream, and those strange soldiers retreated quickly, the speed of withdrawal was staggering.

"King Qilin, this county lord will make you regret killing Wu Qingyang!"

Ling Yuexi snorted coldly, the white figure disappeared into the wild grass, and the words sounded in everyone's ears.

Wrong. She is not Ling Yuexi!

Even if she changes it, she can't change her tone and movements.

The Qilin King suddenly remembered that the spark of the right talent was raised in the army, so to speak, there were spies in the army!

"Withdraw!" At the sound of an order, the cavalry that could not form an army retreated quickly, and they could have run faster, but because the prince did not give the order, no one dared to take the lead in retreating.

The dark cloud cavalry is good at fast attack, rushing into Bai Chengwu's 100,000 army with lightning speed, just like a group of wild wolves scattered around the prey, and was quickly swallowed one bite at a time, Bai Chengwu's shoulder was also injured, wielding a big sword with one hand, Sisdili, he didn't believe that more than 10,000 dark cloud riders would kill his 100,000 army and abandon his armor.

"The prince is back!"

A soldier shouted with joy, seeing the dazzling light reflected by the golden mask, the morale of the soldiers of the Daye Army was high...... However, the Cloud Riders retreated at this time, surging like a tide and disappearing like a raging wind.

"Lord Wang!"

Bai Chengwu lowered his head in frustration and knelt on one knee to ask for punishment.

No one could see the expression under the mask, but they could clearly feel the anger from the prince.

More than 600,000 military horses had been burned for more than a year.

For the newly established Daye, the reserve of grain and grass is more important than the expansion of the army.

The Qilin King squatted down and stared at the black mass on the ground that was still spontaneously combusting, and the tip of the sword picked up a drop and put it in front of him to carefully consider it, and then he saw how many such 'stains' there were on the ground, which showed that this ferocious fire was caused by it.

"Lord Wang."

Li Tongbing, who was taking care of the grain and grass, walked out from behind the ruins with an ugly face.

"According to the detailed investigation of the subordinates, only one-third of the grain and grass were burned."

What does that mean?

Everyone looked at Li Tongbing, and even the Qilin King didn't understand it for a while.

"Someone smuggled grain and grass from the back of the warehouse, and the whole warehouse looked full on the surface, but in fact it was hollowed out."

After saying the most, Li Tongbing's voice lowered, and the grain and grass were transported away under his nose, even if he cut off his head a thousand times, he could not escape the blame.

"Three days, this king wants a reasonable explanation."

Behind the warehouse is a steep cliff, and unless you do a good job, it will be difficult to cross this ravine, let alone tens of thousands of loads of grain

The Qilin King's steps were a little heavy, he had underestimated Ling Yuexi after all.

The woman...... He closed his eyes, and that beautiful face appeared in his mind, five years, I don't know how to overwhelm the country and the city, so that Xu Yanchen would rather risk his life to get out of the ghost gate.

In the military tent, the atmosphere was quite cold.

The general glanced at the contemplative prince, and his heart was even more sorrowful.

With no food and grass, they can only use the winter to prepare, that is, to retreat and recuperate.

"Qilin battalion, the new barracks stayed, and the other soldiers were each paid twenty taels of silver to go home to visit relatives, and they returned to the team in a month."

No one refuted the final order of the Qilin King, and they silently withdrew from the tent to carry it out. Everyone's hearts are not only emotional or angry, but also awe and fear of the 'Tianyue County Lord' of the Celestial Empire. They understand that even if they can prepare grain and grass as soon as possible, they are not sure of victory at the beginning. Lack of morale is a taboo for soldiers.

Wang Lung had just become the commander of the army, although he was only in charge of five people, he was quite proud, and he was still thinking about how to make contributions to the industry, but he didn't expect to encounter this stubble thing, and he came to Bai Xiaowu with a sullen heart.

The two went to the ruins of the warehouse while chatting.

The setting sun dyes the barren slope night forest on the opposite side, giving people a romantic hazy beauty.

Bai Xiaowu felt that the sunset in the northwest was still beautiful.

This year, maybe she can see a snowy beautiful tree hanging in the northwest.

Maybe he was infected by the silent Bai Xiaowu, and Wang Lung, who has always been five big and three thick, also looked at the sunset silently, seeing such a beautiful sunset for the first time, but he occasionally turned his head and couldn't take his eyes off it.

Bai Xiaowu didn't look cute, his expression was very focused, his black grape-like beautiful eyes revealed a touch of caiyi, although he was yellow, his skin was very delicate and smooth, he seemed to touch it with his hands...... Bai Xiaowu turned his head suddenly, he immediately looked away in disdain, and stammered: "Will the grain and grass, the grain and grass be dragged away by the big bird?" ”

Flutter.

Bai Xiaowu smiled, and she also saw that there was just a goshawk hovering in the sky.

"I'm not thinking about how they stole the grain and grass, I'm really curious about Lu Dao now, with so much food, how are they going to leave Daye?"

Yes?

Wang Lung touched his head and thought about it, and immediately said adoringly: "If you really have you, why didn't I think of it?" ”

"Do you think they'll take the water or the mountains?"

Suddenly, there was a hurried hoarse sound, and the two of them were startled, and Bai Xiaowu hid the cunning in his eyes the moment he turned around.

"Li Tongbing."

The two of them immediately saluted.

I have no impression of Wang Long and Li Su, but I know Bai Xiaowu beside him, although I don't know his name, I have seen a few times outside the prince's tent.

"The subordinates thought they would take the waterway."

"Oh?"

Li Su frowned, staring at Bai Xiaowu and waiting for the next step.

"As the ancients said, the most dangerous place is the safest place. The subordinates thought that if they wanted to find out why there was no grain and grass, it was better to closely survey the pass and block the grain and grass on the road. With so much grain and grass, it was easier to pass only by waterway for merchant ships. ”

"I didn't expect the little soldiers outside the king's tent to have such a sharp mind!"

Worst!

Bai Xiaowu's brows furrowed imperceptibly, she originally wanted to catch a fish, but she didn't want to attract a great white shark.

"The prince spares his life, the little one is just too curious, how dare he get an axe in front of the prince?"

Bai Xiaowu hurriedly knelt on the ground, lowered his head and trembled and said, Wang Lung also knelt on the ground, just looking at the Qilin King with a look of worship.

"Guess how they get the food?"

As the Qilin King approached, Li Su stepped back and stood aside, waving his hand to signal Wang Lung to step back as well.

As the Qilin King approached, Bai Xiaowu felt a compelling momentum, she felt that her chest was suffocating, and she was out of breath with sadness.

"Back to the king, prince, the little one can't think of it."

A trace of sweetness came up, and Bai Xiaowu opened his mouth with difficulty.

The Qilin King is testing her internal strength, so she can't be injured immediately and can't resist secretly, the degree of it must be grasped well, otherwise he will really be discovered, and now, he can only gamble.

"Tell the king, who are you?"

The Qilin King looked down at Bai Xiaowu condescendingly, and opened his mouth majestically.

"Small, really...... Poof—"

Bai Xiaowu couldn't resist the force, spit out a mouthful of blood, and fainted.

"Little Five!"

Wang Lung almost rushed up, but fortunately he was dragged by Li Su and glared at him fiercely, so he had to look at Bai Xiaowu who fainted on the ground with chagrin and worry, if he hadn't gone to find him by himself, there would have been no such thing. If he is as naïve as he is, how can he know that if he hadn't gone to find it first today, Bai Xiaowu would definitely have found himself here to chat.

"Carry him into the king's tent."

With a few words, the Qilin King turned to leave.

What does the prince mean?

Wang Lung was still in a daze when he was shouted by Li Su: "Don't bring it over quickly!" Touching Wang Long's tangled expression, he said angrily: "The prince is suspicious of him." Today's matter, we must not leak the slightest bit of news! ”

"Yes!"

Wang Lung immediately picked up Bai Xiaowu.

Hey, this guy is as light as a woman, weaker than he looks. Walking and laughing suddenly, he hasn't hugged a woman yet! How do you know that women are like this?
